It has been a pleasure doing massages at Zen Zone Massage Therapy, but sometimes a change of scenery is needed! Effective March 2018, I will be relocating to Cody, Wyoming!!

 ACE Massage Cupping & MediCupping Therapies

There is a saying in China, “Acupuncture and cupping, more than half of the ills cured.”

Current cupping therapies are adaptations of an ancient technique and possess the benefits of traditional use, along with many incredible new applications.

This therapy utilizes glass or plastic cups and a vacuum pistol, bulb or machine to create suction on the body surface. These cups are moved over the skin using gliding, shaking, popping and rotating techniques while gently pulling up on the cup or are parked for a short time to facilitate joint mobilization or soft tissue release.

This suction reaches deep into the soft tissue, attachments and organs and also has a sedating effect on the nervous system. Another benefit is to pull inflammation and toxins from the body tissues so that the skin and lymphatic system can readily eliminate them. Scar tissue often releases quickly, despite the age of the injury or keloid tendencies.

One of the most amazing aspects of this technique is the “separation” that the vacuum produces in tissue layers. This enables water absorption and renewed blood flow to undernourished and dehydrated tissue, which is invaluable in pre- and post-surgery treatments. It is evident that separation of fused, congested soft tissue and increase in tissue function can be a catalyst for change in many current health conditions.

Solid bloat are layers of dehydrated stagnant lymph, old blood and cellular debris. Solid bloat can accumulate in the body and appear as fat and extra weight, abdominal bloating, cellulite or those stubborn areas that don’t respond to dieting and exercise.

Solid Bloat is often caused by inflammation, which leads to dehydration of the tissues and the inability of the lymphatic system to eliminate debris.  Blood stagnation is caused by micro-tears in compromised soft tissue, old injuries or surgeries.  Cellulite is often stagnant lymph and debris that can be a lifetime accumulation of old medications, anesthesia, smoke or other inhaled contaminates, and cellular wastes.  All of this stored material will aggravate the immune system and liver, leading to more inflammation….and the cycle continues.

Body Contouring with Medi-Cupping uses decompression to lift and separate tissues. By creating suction and negative pressure Medi-Cupping is used to drain toxins and excess fluids, loosen adhesions and lift connective tissue bringing blood flow to stagnant muscles and skin. Cupping Therapy draws inflammation out of the body while increasing circulation and hydration of the tissues.

Medi-Cupping allows for blood supply and nutrition to reach the cells, and old wastes to be purged, which makes it a valuable tool for detoxification protocols.  It’s an incredibly successful way to assist those who are losing weight.

Body Contouring with Medi-Cuppping is safe, highly effective, non invasive and not an irritant to the skin. This simple treatment has truly impressed those who have experienced it’s subtle power.
